Solution Overview
Problem
In dual-card dual-standby scenarios, existing mobile communication systems face limitations in flexible RF resource allocation, leading to suboptimal utilization of RF channel resources, which affects user experience and service performance.
Innovation Solution
A method for communication control that dynamically adjusts RF channel resources for each communication card based on real-time service requirements, ensuring the total number of channels used does not exceed the terminal's maximum capacity, by determining and reporting adjusted capabilities to network devices.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If two communication cards share one set of terminal hardware resources to multiplex maximum capability of a single card, then device complexity is reduced, but RF channel resource coordination becomes more difficult and resource utilization becomes suboptimal
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies dynamics by enabling dynamic adjustment of RF channel allocation based on real-time service requirements. The system transitions from static hardware sharing to dynamic resource distribution, where the number of RF channels allocated to each communication card can be adjusted according to actual service needs, thereby optimizing resource utilization while maintaining hardware sharing.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent changes the parameter of RF channel allocation from a fixed configuration to a variable parameter that can be adjusted based on service requirements. By allowing the number of RF channels to be dynamically changed and coordinated between multiple communication cards, the system achieves better resource utilization without increasing hardware complexity.
2Productivity
If RF channel resources are coordinated between multiple communication cards sharing hardware resources, then resource utilization improves, but coordination complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements feedback mechanisms where communication cards report their service requirements and the terminal adjusts RF channel allocation accordingly. This feedback loop enables the system to optimize resource distribution based on actual service needs, reducing coordination complexity by automating the decision-making process through standardized reporting and adjustment protocols.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments the RF channel coordination process into distinct functional components: requirement reporting by communication cards, capability assessment by the terminal, and allocation decision-making. This segmentation simplifies the overall coordination mechanism by dividing the complex task into manageable steps with clear responsibilities.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the sum of RF channels requested by multiple communication cards exceeds the maximum number of RF channels supported by the terminal, then service capability is enhanced, but hardware resource constraints are violated
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies partial action by allocating only the necessary number of RF channels to each communication card based on actual service requirements rather than providing maximum capability to all cards simultaneously. This selective allocation ensures that hardware resources are not exceeded while still enabling the necessary service capabilities through coordinated partial deployment of RF channels.

AI summary
A method for communication control includes: determining a first number of radio frequency (RF) channels requested by a first communication card and a second number of RF channels requested by a second communication card; in a first preset situation, determining a third number of RF channels and a fourth number of RF channels based on the first number of RF channels and the second number of RF channels; and reporting a first capability and a second capability to a first network device and a second network device, respectively, in which, the first capability indicates that a number of RF channels supported by the first communication card is the third number of RF channels, and the second capability indicates that a number of RF channels supported by the second communication card is the fourth number of RF channels.
